Known issues:

Due to an issue, we have temporarily disabled the Utility Kickstart armor mod.
The Child of the Old Gods Aspect is not providing ability energy or health as expected.
Defeating Unstoppable Champions too quickly during the intro to the PsiOps Battleground: Moon Nightfall can result in missing revive tokens as well as players earning a lower than expected reward tier.
Altar of Reflections memories may not appear centered when viewed.
Some players are unable to acquire new Trials of Osiris rewards.

To end it, two reminders:

This is the last week to get Hung Jury from Nightfalls
The Final Shape showcase is August 22, 9 AM PT

That witherhoard skin is ugly as fuck. How did that win?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Ooo I like the armor.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

My only problem with the solstice armor, while it does look epic AF, it doesn't match any of the other armor in the game, so it's hard to pair it with other stuff. I bet it'll look dope with the callus shaders though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think it may pair up nice with the 2021 solstice armor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I tend to think the same thing quite often, but most sets end up matching more armor eventually as new designs get added in.

A reminder at the bottom that this is the last week Hung Jury will be in Nightfall rotation. I guess it's going away again next season? I can't remember.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks - I'll add that in!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Have to agree the armour looks good, and I'm really loving those epaulettes

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The armor looks awesome, ngl

pre-order and Collector's Edition-specific emblems will be restricted to use on the platform that owns those licenses

Huh so... if you cross-save and want to use a preorder emblem, you've gotta switch every time you play on a different platform? That is oddly restrictive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes. Has always been a bit stupid, you were previously only able to pull them out of collections on the original platform but could still equip them elsewhere. Now you can't even equip them if you aren't on that original platform.
